Inventor: WINGETT PAUL T
IPC: G05D1/00
Filed: 2006-06-22
Abstract: An electric flight control surface actuation system (120) is implemented using a low-level control section (202) and a high power section. The low level control section (202) is disposed within an electronics bay (206) within the aircraft (100), and is in operable communication with one or more flight computers (206) via a communication bus (212). The flight computers (206) supply flight control surface position commands to the low level control section (202), which in turn transmits actuator commands to the high power section (204) via a plurality of redundant communication links (214). The high power section (204) is disposed remotely from the low level control section (202) and, in addition to being in operable communication with the low level control section (202), is coupled to an aircraft power bus (222) and to each of the actuators (121-134). The high power section (204) receives the actuator position commands transmitted from the low level control section (202) and, in response, selectively energizes the actuators (122-134) from the aircraft power bus (222).

Title: Wireless communication method and apparatus for decoding enhanced dedicated channel absolute grant channel transmissions
Inventor: YANG RUI
IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 2006-08-25
Abstract: A wireless communication method and apparatus for decoding an enhanced uplink dedicated channel (E-DCH) absolute grant channel (E-AGCH) transmissions are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) receives E-AGCH data which includes a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) part and a data part. The CRC part is masked with a WTRU identity (ID) at a Node-B. The CRC part and the data part are demultiplexed and the CRC part is demasked with the WTRU ID. A CRC is then performed with the demasked CRC part. If the CRC passes the data part is sent to an enhanced uplink medium access control (MAC-e) entity. The WTRU ID may be a primary E-DCH radio network temporary identity (E-RNTI) or a secondary E-RNTI. When the E-AGCH data is transmitted over a 10ms frame, if the CRC fails, E-AGCH data via subsequent subframe may be soft combined with the previous E-AGCH data.
